While most of us know that the HEMA Alliance is open to just about everyone, last night at the GC meeting it came to our attention that some people out there were under the impression that it is by invite only.

Lifetime memberships are still listed on the website as being available. Where did you hear this?

When I went to renew my membership last year it was not listed. This may have changed back as I have not looked since November, but when I did look at that time it was not listed so I did not do so at that timem and realisitcally it only makes sense to do so when I renew any given year.
